Reveco gives up WBA belt

By Gabriel F. Cordero

Juan Carlos Reveco is no longer the WBA junior flyweight champion after he vacated the belt late Friday in a letter addressed to the World Boxing Association. Interim champion Roman “Chocolatito” Gonzalez ascends to full WBA 108lb champion status. In the letter, Reveco requested to be made mandatory challenger in the 112 lb category, and targets WBA interim titleholder Jean Piero Perez as his first opponent.
